Daytime Running Lights
(DRL)
The daytime running lights turn on
automatically when the vehicle starts
moving.
They turn off when the parking brake is
engaged or the gear selector is shifted
to the Park (P) position (if equipped with
automatic transmission).
Note:In some markets, the daytime
running lights can be deactivated. For
markets that allow deactivation, refer to
“Personalization Features” in “Knowing
Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
High Beams
The headlights can be switched
between high and low beams by
moving the lever forward or backward.
When the headlight high-beams are on,
the
high beam indicator is
illuminated.
Flash To Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your
headlights by partially pulling the
headlight lever toward the steering
wheel. This will cause the high beam
headlights to turn on until the lever is
released.
The
high beam indicator in the
instrument cluster illuminates
simultaneously.
Automatic Lighting
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, the light will sense the
surrounding lightness or darkness and
automatically turns the headlights, other
exterior lights and dashboard
illumination on or off.
Note: Do not shade the light sensor by
placing a sticker or a label on the
windshield. Otherwise the light sensor
will not operate correctly.
The light sensor also works as a rain
sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep
hands and scrapers clear of the
windshield when the wiper lever is in
the AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON as fingers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper blades
damaged when the wipers activate
automatically. If you are going to clean the windshield, be sure the wipers are
turned off completely when the engine
is running.
Note:
The headlights, other exterior lights
and dashboard lights may not turn off
immediately even if the surrounding
area becomes well-lit because the light
sensor determines that it is night time if
the surrounding area is continuously
dark for several minutes such as inside
long tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels,
or in indoor parking lots. In this case,
the lights turn off if the light switch is
turned to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched to ACC or the ignition is
switched off, the headlights, other
exterior lights and dashboard
illumination will turn off.
The dashboard lights can be
adjusted by rotating the knob in the
instrument cluster. The day/night mode
can be changed by rotating the knob
until a beep sound is heard.

lightsmaybechangedbyan

Odometer / Trip
Computer
The display mode can be changed from
odometer to “Trip computer A” to “Trip
computer B” and then back to
odometer by pushing the selector while
one of them is displayed.
The selected mode will be displayed.
When the ignition is placed in the ACC
or OFF position, the odometer or trip
cannot be displayed. Pushing the
selector can switch the trip or reset it
for a ten-minute period in the following
cases:
After the ignition is cycled to OFF
from ON.
After the driver's door is opened. Odometer
The odometer records the total
distance the vehicle has been driven.
Trip Computer
The trip computer can record the total
distance of two trips. One is recorded in
“Trip A”, and the other is recorded in
“Trip B”.
For instance, “Trip A” can record the
distance from the point of origin, and
“Trip B” can record the distance from
where the fuel tank is filled.
When “Trip A” is selected, pushing the
selector again within one second will
change to “Trip B” mode. When “Trip A”
is selected, TRIP A will be displayed.
When “Trip B” is selected, TRIP B will
be displayed.
The trip computer records the total
distance the vehicle is driven until the
meter is again reset. Return it to “0.0”
by depressing and holding the selector
for one second or more.
Use this meter to measure trip
distances and to compute fuel
consumption.
Versions With Fiat Connect 7.0
:if
the fuel economy data is reset using the
fuel economy monitor or Trip A is reset
using the trip meter, the fuel economy
data and Trip A are reset simultaneously
when the fuel economy monitor with
the trip meter is on, .
Note: Only the trip records tenths of
miles (kilometers). Trip Computer Reset
The trip computer will be erased when:
The power supply is interrupted
(blown fuse or the battery is
disconnected).
The vehicle is driven over
9999.9 miles.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed
of the vehicle.

be dimmed even if the position lights
are turned on. When the illumination
dimmer is canceled, the screen in the
center display switches to constant
display of the daytime screen.Trip Computer And Info
